The Millennial Dialogue is a global initiative amongst progressive think tanks, looking into why young people are commonly misconceived as politically disengaged when compared to their parents or older generation.
The Millennial Dialogue, a global initiative of FEPS aims to engage and create a better understanding of youth. Online surveys were conducted across six continents, with over 20 000 young people interviewed. The key findings of the project will be presented and discussed at this roundtable.
